Power of Water

Posted by Mike on

Non-typical January day in the Oriskany Creek. The past couple of days have been full of unseasonably warm weather and rain. The snow is gone and the water is making the dash to the low lands. It is hard to believe but I was in the middle of all that exactly one week ago photographing the snow covered creek in below zero temps. I wonder what tomorrow will be like?

A River (or Creek) Runs Through…

On my way home from work Saturday I couldn’t resist stopping along the Oriskany Creek to capture a few images before all the snow melted. The warm temps have added to the water volume and made for a good display of splash over the small falls. Additional images for my Monochrome Winter series…

Solitude

I found this scene on my way home from the library the other night. I knew I had to return and capture it before the snow disappeared. Another entry in my Monochrome Winter series.

Frozen

Adding to the Monochrome Winter series with this lone leaf found in the snow outside of work. Some days it is just enough to get outside with the camera during lunch to re-charge the batteries.
